<p>This week we share our conversation with Army combat veteran, and Purple Heart recipient turned TV celebrity JR Martinez, about the inspiring podcast, “Medal of Honor, Stories of Courage”. </p> <p>We begin with a closer look JR’s life, who went from surviving an IED attack and severe burns, to winning “Dancing with The Stars” and a role on the daytime TV drama “All My Children”. He shared incredible moments from his personal recovery, including how an off-the-cuff comment he made to comfort his mother, eventually became reality as he went from the hospital to Hollywood, eventually starring in national television shows.</p> <p>Martinez also describes the true heroes covered in the podcast. Like tales of a soldier’s valor during WWI and the teacher who saved a student’s life. </p> <p>The Medal of Honor podcast, from the acclaimed producers at Pushkin, gives all listeners inspiration during these challenging times.</p> <p>Martinez also reminds us that while we hold Medal of Honor recipients in the highest regard, we all have what it takes to be a hero to others.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Hear: Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage here:</p> <p><a href="https://www.pushkin.fm/podcasts/medal-of-honor-stories-of-courage">https://www.pushkin.fm/podcasts/medal-of-honor-stories-of-courage</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>See: More from Army veteran JR Martinez here:</p> <p><a href="https://jrmartinez.com/">https://jrmartinez.com/</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Connect: Eye on Veterans Host, Phil Briggs, [email protected]</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p>
